fictitious. I just phoned her.

And you believe her?

Yeah, I believe her.

Now that's on the table, what can

we do to lift that injunction?

Can we get to the Congressman?

They take campaign contributions.

Can we buy or frighten them off?

Is there something in his past?

We need to use some leverage.

Give me a break, will you?

Come on.

Come on!

Come on.

- Was it made in Taiwan?

- Yeah. These are tough to find.

Wait, wait. Here. We got one.

Come on!

Want to go get a drink

until it stops?

Yeah, I'd love it.

Come on.

The strangest case I ever handled?

The truth was,

I never actually handled the case.

But the strangest case

I ever came near to

was when my parents got divorced.

My mother asked me to represent her.

- You're kidding?

- That's what I said.

She said,

"You know what an a**hole he is."

"You've been a witness

to this marriage for 29 years."

- This is coming from my mother.

- How did you get out of it?

Well, you can't

turn your mom down.

So, I escaped on a technicality.

- Which was what?

- I didn't practise family law.

It was true, you know.

And she bought it.

- You're making it up.

- Could I make that up?

Waiter?

- I've got a lot of pull here.

- I noticed.

They know me well. Miss?

- Coffee?

- I'd love one.

Two coffees, please.

Well, I tell you...

- Do you want one?

- No, thank you.

It's funny being a lawyer.

It's like being a doctor.

Everybody's telling you

their innermost secrets.

- You must have to be discreet.

- God, yeah.

Are you?

Am I what?

Discreet.

Yes, I'm discreet.

Me, too.

- Can I ask you something?

- What?

Why don't you have a date?

- It's Saturday night.

- I did have a date.

I stood him up.

That was the phone call I made.

Does that make you feel good?

It doesn't make me feel bad.

So, where's your wife?

Where's my wife?

My wife is in the country with her

parents, visiting for the weekend.

You're here with a strange girl

being a naughty boy.

Having dinner with somebody

isn't a crime.

Not yet.

- Will it be?

- I don't know. What do you think?

I definitely think it's up to you.

I can't say yet.

I haven't made up my mind.

At least you're very honest.

We were attracted to each other

at the party. That was obvious.

You're on your own for the night.

That's also obvious.

We're two adults.

Let's get the check.

- That was great.

- Thank God.

Are you feeling energetic?

What do you have in mind?

I live up here.

- In this building?

- Yeah.

Well, where do I get a cab, you know?

Ever done it in an elevator?

- Not recently.

- I bet you haven't.

I'm sorry, baby. I'm sorry.

How are you?

Hi. What happened to you?

I tried you earlier.

I guess you're not back yet.
